Bugfix - own repertoire :)

- Curves without bevel or extrude didn't calculate the Z value for
softbody when the "3d" option for curves was off.
- Typo in softbody.c, for switch of // comments to /* */

Boolean op error handling has been added. When a no closed mesh is used the follow message is showed:
"Both meshes must be a closed mesh"

Boolean op are undeffined when one of the two meshes are a no closed mesh (without holes).
I put a test to check the input meshes before do any thing. If one mesh have holes a error code is returned.

-- Bugfix #3186: Fix memory leaks caused by multiple calls to
PyDict_SetItemString() with objects that were not properly decrefed
afterwards. Due to the number of places this was used, I added a
wrapper EXPP_dict_set_item_str() to gen_utils.c to handle it.

This started as a scriptlink bug, due to how many times scripts were
being executed I think it just magnified how bad the memory leak in
BPy was. Animating the blend attached with this bug report would cause
memory to grow by about 3MB for every 280 frames. After the patch,
memory did not appear to grow at all (or at least not noticably using
Unix's ps and top utils).

Since many of the PyDict_SetItemString() calls were in initialization
modules I think my tests executed most of the changed code, but would
appreciate script users really giving feedback.

-- Bugfix #2868: NMesh.update(0,0,1) with derived mesh data would cause a
crash. Hopefully the NMesh module will die a silent death before we
discovere this doesn't really fix the problem :-)

Bugfix #496

Noticed that static particle orcos (strands) actually were global
coordinates. This was code copied from dynamic particles...

Bugreporter (hi env!) tried to make nice zebra texture, which of course
very much failed.

Note; orco textures for strand give the same texture coordinate for the
entire hair. UV maps don't work here yet.

Bugfix #3494

An image texture without picture returned a '0', causing the texture code
to generate a bump normal that warped the entire shading around.
In bugreport it was showing terminator issues with ray shadow.

Terminator problems can still occor with more extreme bumpmaps though,
something to look at further.

Bugfix #3493

Replaced sqrt() with the safe version sasqrt() in anisotropic.
the formula (1 - n*n) should not give negative values for n = dotproduct
of normals, but float inaccuracy can make negative zeros, as we know!

This solves, hopefully, last annoying "blotches" in hair!

Fixed calls to BIF_draw_icon_blended() in draw_marker() to use TH_BACK,
also removed unused parameter from draw_markers_time().

A small tweak on the Glow effect Alpha channel.

Possible fix for bug #3400

Disabled commit of three days ago to speedup and improve hairstrand
raytracing with a linedist (cylinder) check. It didn't behave OK on strands
set to be more than 1 pixel (not to mention 10 pixels), and I have no time
now to fully check and code it.

Which is not really important either... In general, all 3d papers talk about
using shadowbuffer shadows for hair, which gives much nicer results for
dense volumes of polygons.

This commit restores regular (flat polygon) raytrace shadow for strands.
Also fixes some nasty bugs as reported. :)

Cleanup & preparation commit for getting Armatures/Poses/Actions working
in the game engine again.

All files in source/gameengine/ I've committed below have a comment like
/* XXX note .... */
where something needs to be done. This is pretty straightforward for Erwin,
who has been notified in person too about this. :)

* warnings fixes

.net projectfile update
* fixes file directory for elbeem (rebuild intern)
* adds the tiff stuff to imbuf and copies dll

-- Partial bugfix for #3186. curve.getControlPoint() wasn't DECREF-ing
values added to a list, causing a memory leak.

Fix incorrect documentation for Window.QTest().

I hesitate to call it a bugfix... but it's a removal of a very ancient
(2001) hack that enforced opening renderwindows smaller than screen size.

The notes I could find referred to testing old 3d cards, which failed to
give graphics memory for large windows. Another note was an issue on OSX,
where the topbar and windowbar gets hidden otherwise.
That latter case I corrected now.

Will organize good testing for this, if there's issues, will uncommit :)
